Things have changed a lot over the years, but one thing has remained constant and that is our love of the Mariners. People come and go, some like to post a lot and others just like to read. It's up to you how you participate in the community!

If posting is not your thing, you can interact in other ways, including voting on polls, and unlock options only available to community members.

    ccmfans.net is not only for Mariners fans either. Most of us are bonded by our support for the Mariners, but if you are a fan of another club (except the Scum, come on, we need some standards), feel free to join and get into some banter.

I won't hear a bad word about Dan. A lovely bloke who has a very tough job. Anyone giving him stick is an idiot.
Anyone giving CCM employees broadly is a dick. It's really the football dept and the upper management that has caused this problem.
Not the rank and file employee. It's not ok.

Cheers, didn't understand the elaborate acronym.
It’s eloborate but we’ll deserved. If Dan owned the club we would not be the shambles we are. Heart of gold and patience of a saint. Can you imagine all the stick he cops from disgruntled members!!

Apparently a half decent Footballer for Kariong and doesn't shirk a tackle.

If you or anyone else witness some mouthy gobshite giving DDTMM abuse pull them up nice and quick.

All abuse is to be addressed to Pikey and Muley (and Shuan apparently).

Everyone seems to be turning on Monty? What has he done, or is he just being held responsible as part of the staff?

I think the responsibility is higher up the food chain than Monty or Mulvey. Its the deliberate strategy of short term ,knee jerk decisions for social media clicks and ticket sales (Garcia,Bolt,McCormack) at the expense of a boring, long term plan to build an actual football club that wins things.

Just think. A proper football club would have Wales and Trent as developing youngsters who maybe we could sell. Instead, they piss away proper player development for has beens (Oar,Cisse) and wage thieves (Wee Judas and McCormack)

Reboot 3.0 is getting closer and will look horribly like 1 and 2 I fear. If the same plan fails twice, the person proposing it for a 3rd time has to go.

Like I said earlier , just cause Monty has the required tickets, don’t mean he knows how to work them

Indeed...insanity is doing the same thing over and over expecting a different result ...so pikey must be a sociopath at the very least

This long term plan was all supposed to be vision of the CoE and then the various highly paid “consultants” brought to fix our football department.

The bad times have come for an obvious reason and its Charlesworth... he took the most successful club in Hal, with huge goals and aspirations in player development and the development of Australia's best sporting youth academy of any sport, supported by building of a club along with motel etc at the COE.

As a club we had two years of profit according to media reports and our losses where the lowest in Hal... our major owner lost his arse in the Wall Street creation of a world depression they renamed the GFC... anywho Peter was rooted and broke and Gorman had no more money but but but Gorman inspiration to create the COE and get it done was amazing... along the way we found coach with a silver tongue and spoke the language of Football folk...

With Goreman and Peter broke and FFA stealing Goreman to save Hal with no funds to us... LM stepped aside and he appointed Arnold who as it turned out was a another master stroke for the ""little club the should not"" ..

In steps Charlesworth and screws both Peter & Goreman, then attempts to run at a profit by cutting costs to the bone..

The cost saving where more than offset by the fall in revenue.... and the appointment of that former Brisbane Roar guy as the CEO who publicly stated the old ways where out and he and MC would show us how to make money... it was simple move the club to North Sydney ...

Gallop refused and both SFC & WSW objected so MC was forced to make do with the Coast.... he has sold almost everything at the COE so much so we don't even train there anymore.

Its been obvious to me that, MC wants to sell and not only recover his losses but make a profit and he is waiting for an independent Hal ... my guess he will sell to a Canberra based bid ... BTW I have no inside knowledge nor has anyone suggested this to me ...

Hope I am wrong about MC selling to another bid team away from the Coast but it looks that way to me...

Well, if pikey sells the club out of the area,the HAL is dead for me ...and probably a f**k ton of others as well

Absolutely, me as well. I'm not such a football lover that I'll pick another team to follow (unless a Tassie team ever comes in). I've got a couple or three of teams in the UK I can watch progress or not (Blues, Baggies & Toons) and the local teams my grandsons play with and then there's my beloved Collingwood. I started following the Mariners because they're my local team. If they become not local, then I'm not a follower.
